The three best methods to limit Google form responses

1. Use Google form settings

If you want just one response from each respondent then you can use this method. To do so, you need to:

  • Open the Google Form
  • Click on the Settings icon
  • You will then be shown the Settings window
  • Click on the ‘Limit to 1 response’ checkbox
  • Then click on the Save button

All these steps will ensure that a person can submit his response only once.

2. Manually stop accepting the responses

Once you have collected the required number of responses you intended to receive, you can change the settings manually to stop getting any more of them. To do so:
